  1. LONGITUDINAL DYNAMICS Frank Tecker based on the course by Joël Le Duff Many Thanks! CAS on Advanced Level Accelerator Physics Course Trondheim, 18-29 August 2013

  2. Summary of the 2 lectures: • Acceleration methods • Accelerating structures • Phase Stability + Energy-Phase oscillations (Linac) • Circular accelerators: Cyclotron / Synchrotron • Dispersion Effects in Synchrotron • Longitudinal Phase Space Motion • Stationary Bucket • Injection Matching • Adiabatic Damping • Two more related lectures: • Linear Accelerators I + II – Maurizio Vretanar • RF Cavity Design - Erk Jensen

  3. Main Characteristics of an Accelerator Newton-LorentzForce on a charged particle: 2nd term always perpendicular to motion => no acceleration • ACCELERATION is the main job of an accelerator. • It provides kinetic energy to charged particles, hence increasing their momentum. • In order to do so, it is necessary to have an electric field preferably along the direction of the initial momentum (z). BENDING is generated by a magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the particle trajectory. The bending radius obeys to the relation : in practical units: FOCUSING is a second way of using a magnetic field, in which the bending effect is used to bring the particles trajectory closer to the axis, hence to increase the beam density.

  4. vacuum envelope source DV E Electrostatic Acceleration Electrostatic Field: Energy gain: W =eΔV Limitation:isolation problems maximum high voltage (~ 10 MV) used for first stage of acceleration: particle sources, electron guns x-ray tubes 750 kV Cockroft-Walton generatorat Fermilab (Proton source)

  5. vacuum pipe beam Bf iron yoke coil beam E R B Bf Methods of Acceleration: Induction From Maxwell’s Equations: The electric field is derived from a scalar potential φ and a vector potential A The time variation of the magnetic field H generatesan electric field E Example: Betatron The varying magnetic field is used to guideparticles on a circular trajectory as well asfor acceleration. Limited by saturation in iron

  6. Radio-Frequency (RF) Acceleration Electrostatic acceleration limited by isolation possibilities => use RF fields Wideröe-type structure Cylindrical electrodes (drift tubes) separated by gaps and fed by a RF generator, as shown above, lead to an alternating electric field polarity Synchronism condition L = v T/2 v = particle velocityT = RF period Similar for standing wave cavity as shown (with v≈c) D.Schulte

  7. Resonant RF Cavities • Considering RF acceleration, it is obvious that when particles get high velocities the drift spaces get longer and one loses on the efficiency.=> The solution consists of using a higher operating frequency. • The power lost by radiation, due to circulating currents on the electrodes, is proportional to the RF frequency.=> The solution consists of enclosing the system in a cavity which resonant frequency matches the RF generator frequency. • The electromagnetic power is now constrained in the resonant volume • Each such cavity can be independently powered from the RF generator • Note however that joule losses will occur in the cavity walls (unless made of superconducting materials)

  8. Some RF Cavity Examples L = vT/2 (π mode) L = vT (2π mode) Single Gap Multi-Gap

  9. g Used for protons, ions (50 – 200 MeV, f ~ 200 MHz) L2 L1 L3 L4 L5 RF generator Synchronism condition RF acceleration: Alvarez Structure LINAC 1 (CERN)

  10. Transit time factor The accelerating field varies during the passage of the particle => particle does not always see maximum field => effective acceleration smaller Transit time factordefined as: In the general case, the transit time factoris: for Simple modeluniform field: • 0 < Ta< 1 • Ta 1 for g  0, smaller ωRF • Important for low velocities (ions) follows:

  11. CLIC Accelerating Structures (30 & 11 GHz) Disc loaded traveling wave structures -When particles gets ultra-relativistic (v~c) the drift tubes become very long unless the operating frequency is increased. Late 40’s the development of radar led to high power transmitters (klystrons) at very high frequencies (3 GHz). -Next came the idea of suppressing the drift tubes using traveling waves. However to get a continuous acceleration the phase velocity of the wave needs to be adjusted to the particle velocity. solution: slow wave guide with irises ==> iris loaded structure

  12. The Traveling Wave Case wave number vφ = phase velocityv = particle velocity The particle travels along with the wave, andk represents the wave propagation factor. v = vφand If synchronism satisfied: where Φ0 is the RF phase seen by the particle.

  13. Energy Gain In relativistic dynamics, total energy E and momentum p are linked by W kinetic energy Hence: The rate of energy gain per unit length of acceleration (along z) is then: and the kinetic energy gained from the field along the z path is: where V is just a potential.

  14. total energy total energy rest energy rest energy Velocity, Energy and Momentum electrons normalized velocity normalized velocity => electrons almost reach the speed of light very quickly (few MeV range) protons electrons protons Momentum

  15. Summary: Relativity + Energy Gain 2nd term always perpendicular to motion => no acceleration Newton-Lorentz Force Relativistics Dynamics RF Acceleration (neglecting transit time factor) The field will change during the passage of the particle through the cavity=> effective energy gain is lower

  16. For circular accelerators, the origin of time is taken at the zero crossing of the RF voltage with positive slope • For linear accelerators, the origin of time is taken at the positive crest of the RF voltage Time t= 0 chosen such that: 1 2 f1 f2 Common Phase Conventions 3. I will stick to convention 1 in the following to avoid confusion

  17. Principle of Phase Stability (Linac) Let’s consider a succession of accelerating gaps, operating in the 2π mode, for which the synchronism condition is fulfilled for a phase s . is the energy gain in one gap for the particle to reach thenext gap with the same RF phase: P1 ,P2, …… are fixed points. For a 2π mode, the electric field is the same in all gaps at any given time. If anenergy increase is transferred into a velocity increase => M1 & N1 will move towards P1 => stableM2& N2will go away from P2=> unstable(Highly relativistic particles have no significant velocity change)

  18. A Consequence of Phase Stability Transverse focusing fields at the entrance and defocusing at the exit of the cavity. Electrostatic case: Energy gain inside the cavity leads to focusing RF case: Field increases during passage => transverse defocusing! defocusing RF force Longitudinal phase stability means : The divergence of the field iszero according to Maxwell : External focusing (solenoid, quadrupole) is then necessary

  19. Energy-phase Oscillations (1) - Rate of energy gain for the synchronous particle: - Rate of energy gain for a non-synchronous particle, expressed in reduced variables, and : - Rate of change of the phase with respect to the synchronous one: Since:

  20. Energy-phase Oscillations (2) one gets: Combining the two 1st order equations into a 2nd order equation gives: with Stable harmonic oscillations imply: hence: And since acceleration also means: You finally get the result for the stable phase range:

  21. DE, Dp/p DE, Dp/p acceleration move forward move backward f f deceleration reference The particle trajectory in the phase space (Dp/p, f) describes its longitudinal motion. Emittance: phase space area including all the particles NB: if the emittance contour correspond to a possible orbit in phase space, its shape does not change with time (matched beam) Longitudinal phase space The energy – phase oscillations can be drawn in phase space:

  22. Used for protons, ions B = constant wRF = constant RF generator, wRF Synchronism condition B g Ion source Cyclotron frequency Extraction electrode Ions trajectory Circular accelerators: Cyclotron • g increases with the energy no exact synchronism • if v  cg 1

  23. Synchrocyclotron: Same as cyclotron, except a modulation of wRF • B = constant g wRF = constant wRFdecreases with time Allows to go beyond the non-relativistic energies The condition: Cyclotron / Synchrocyclotron TRIUMF 520 MeV cyclotron Vancouver - Canada

  24. B R RF cavity E RF generator Circular accelerators: The Synchrotron • Constant orbit during acceleration • To keep particles on the closed orbit, B should increase with time • wand wRFincrease with energy h integer, harmonic number: number of RF cycles per revolution Synchronism condition

  25. B Bending magnet R=C/2π injection extraction r E The Synchrotron The synchrotron is a synchronous accelerator since there is a synchronous RF phase for which the energy gain fits the increase of the magnetic field at each turn. That implies the following operating conditions: Energy gain per turn Synchronous particle RF synchronism (h - harmonicnumber) Constant orbit Variable magnetic field bendingradius Ifv≈c,wrhencewRFremain constant (ultra-relativistic e- )

  26. The Synchrotron Energy ramping is simply obtained by varying the B field (frequency follows v): Since: Stable phase φschanges duringenergy ramping • The number of stable synchronous particles is equal to the harmonic number h. They are equally spaced along the circumference. • Each synchronous particle satisfies the relation p=eB. They have the nominal energy and follow the nominal trajectory.

  27. The Synchrotron During the energy ramping, the RF frequency increases to follow the increase of the revolution frequency : Hence: ( using ) Since the RF frequency must follow the variation of the B field with the law This asymptotically tends towards when B becomes large compared towhich corresponds to

  28. Dispersion Effects in a Synchrotron If a particle is slightly shifted in momentum it will have a different orbit and the length is different. The “momentum compaction factor” is defined as: cavity E Circumference 2R E+E If the particle is shifted in momentum it will have also a different velocity.As a result of both effects the revolution frequency changes: p=particle momentum R=synchrotron physical radius fr=revolution frequency

  29. Dispersion Effects in a Synchrotron (2) x d The elementary path difference from the two orbits is: definition of dispersion Dx leading to the total change in the circumference: < >mmeans that the average is considered over the bending magnet only With ρ=∞ in straight sections we get:

  30. Dispersion Effects in a Synchrotron (3) definition of momentum compaction factor =0 at the transition energy

  31. Phase Stability in a Synchrotron From the definition of  it is clear that an increase in momentum gives- below transition (η > 0) a higher revolution frequency(increase in velocity dominates) while - above transition (η < 0) a lower revolution frequency (v  c and longer path) where the momentum compaction (generally > 0) dominates. Stable synchr. Particle for  < 0 above transition  > 0

  32. Crossing Transition At transition, the velocity change and the path length change with momentum compensate each other. So the revolution frequency there is independent from the momentum deviation. Crossing transition during acceleration makes the previous stable synchronous phase unstable. The RF system needs to make a rapid change of the RF phase, a ‘phase jump’.

  33. f1- The particle is accelerated - Below transition, an increase in energy means an increase in revolution frequency - The particle arrives earlier – tends toward f0 f2 f0 f1 f2- The particle is decelerated - decrease in energy - decrease in revolution frequency - The particle arrives later – tends toward f0 Synchrotron oscillations Simple case (no accel.): B = const., below transition The phase of the synchronous particle must therefore be f0 = 0.

  34. f2 f0 f1 Phase space picture Synchrotron oscillations (2)

  35. f fs stable region The symmetry of the case B = const. is lost unstable region separatrix Synchrotron oscillations (3) Case with acceleration B increasing 1 2 Phase space picture

  36. Longitudinal Dynamics in Synchrotrons It is also often called“synchrotron motion”. The RF acceleration process clearly emphasizes two coupled variables, the energy gained by the particle and the RF phase experienced by the same particle. Since there is a well defined synchronous particle which has always the same phase s, and the nominal energy Es, it is sufficient to followother particles with respect to that particle.So let’s introduce the following reduced variables: revolution frequency : fr = fr – frs particle RF phase :  =  - s particle momentum : p = p - ps particle energy : E = E – Es azimuth angle :  =  - s

  37. v First Energy-Phase Equation Dq particle ahead arrives earlier => smaller RF phase qs For a given particle with respect to the reference one: R Since: and one gets:

  38. Second Energy-Phase Equation The rate of energy gained by a particle is: The rate of relative energy gain with respect to the reference particle is then: Expanding the left-hand side to first order: leads to the second energy-phase equation:

  39. Equations of Longitudinal Motion deriving and combining This second order equation is non linear. Moreover the parameters within the bracket are in general slowly varying with time. We will study some cases in the following…

  40. Small Amplitude Oscillations Let’s assume constant parameters Rs,ps,s and : with Consider now small phase deviations from the reference particle: (for small ) and the corresponding linearized motion reduces to a harmonic oscillation: where s is the synchrotron angular frequency

  41. Stability condition for ϕs Stability is obtained when s is real and so s2 positive: cos (fs) VRF  < tr  > tr  > tr  < tr Stable in the region if acceleration deceleration

  42. Large Amplitude Oscillations For larger phase (or energy) deviations from the reference the second order differential equation is non-linear: (s as previously defined) Multiplying by and integrating gives an invariant of the motion: which for small amplitudes reduces to: (the variable is , and s is constant) Similar equations exist for the second variable : Ed/dt

  43. Large Amplitude Oscillations (2) When  reaches -s the force goes to zero and beyond it becomes non restoring.Hence -sis an extreme amplitude for a stable motion which in the phase space( ) is shown as closed trajectories. Equation of the separatrix: Second value m where the separatrix crosses the horizontal axis: Area within this separatrix is called “RF bucket”.

  44. Energy Acceptance From the equation of motion it is seen that reaches an extreme when , hence corresponding to . Introducing this value into the equation of the separatrix gives: That translates into an acceptance in energy: This “RF acceptance” depends strongly on s and plays an important role for the capture at injection, and the stored beam lifetime.

  45. RF Acceptance versus Synchronous Phase The areas of stable motion (closed trajectories) are called “BUCKET”. As the synchronous phase gets closer to 90º the buckets gets smaller. The number of circulating buckets is equal to “h”. The phase extension of the bucket is maximum for s=180º (or 0°) which correspond to no acceleration . The RF acceptance increases with the RF voltage.

  46. Stationnary Bucket - Separatrix This is the case sins=0 (no acceleration) which means s=0 or . The equation of the separatrix for s= (above transition) becomes: Replacing the phase derivative by the (canonical) variable W: W Wbk and introducing the expression for s leads to the following equation for the separatrix:   0 2 with C=2Rs

  47. Stationnary Bucket (2) Setting = in the previous equation gives the height of the bucket: This results in the maximum energy acceptance: The area of the bucket is: Since: one gets:

  48. Effect of a Mismatch Injected bunch: short length and large energy spreadafter 1/4 synchrotron period: longer bunch with a smaller energy spread. W W   For larger amplitudes, the angular phase space motion is slower (1/8 period shown below) => can lead to filamentation and emittance growth W.Pirkl stationary bucket accelerating bucket

  49. Bunch Matching into a Stationnary Bucket A particle trajectory inside the separatrix is described by the equation: s= W The points where the trajectory crosses the axis are symmetric with respect to s= Wbk Wb   0  2 m 2-m

  50. Bunch Matching into a Stationnary Bucket (2) Setting    in the previous formulaallows to calculate the bunch height: or: This formula shows that for a given bunch energy spread the proper matching of a shorter bunch (m close to , small)will require a bigger RF acceptance, hence a higher voltage For small oscillation amplitudes the equation of the ellipse reduces to: Ellipse area is called longitudinal emittance
